Top Storylines to Watch
Revenge Chance for Wisconsin

All season long, teams have been trying and failing to beat Kentucky. The Wildcats have faced some tough challenges throughout the year, but they survived each time to go into the Final Four with a 38-0 record.
However, the one matchup everyone has looked forward to for much of the season is Kentucky against Wisconsin, as noted by Eric Prisbell of USA Today:
The two teams played in the national semifinals a year ago and the Wildcats ended up with a one-point victory. The Badgers are now back looking to avenge their previous defeat.
On paper, Wisconsin is a team that could give Kentucky legitimate problems. Like Notre Dame, the squad can spread the floor offensively with its ability to shoot from the outside. All five players on the court can make three-pointers, which makes it a tough unit to defend.
Additionally, the Badgers have the size down low to match up with Kentucky defensively and in the rebounding battle.
That said, there is a big difference between having the ability to beat this team and actually winning. We'll see if Wisconsin can actually pull off the upset Saturday.
Michigan State Cinderella

When you think of Cinderellas in the NCAA tournament, you rarely think about a program that has won multiple national championships and a coach who has gone to seven Final Fours in his career. However, this Michigan State team qualifies as one of the biggest surprises of the postseason.
There are certainly talented players on the roster like Travis Trice, Branden Dawson and Denzel Valentine, but this group is not up to the standard of past Spartans teams. They dealt with inconsistency throughout the year and even lost to Texas Southern during the nonconference season.
Despite these issues, the squad found a way to get better as the year went on and the No. 7 seed played its way to the Final Four.
Charles Robinson of Yahoo Sports gave high praise to the coaching job:
Even head coach Tom Izzo is enjoying this ride, via Adam Zagoria of SNY.tv:
On paper, Michigan State seems severely overmatched in the upcoming battle against Duke as well as either Wisconsin or Kentucky in the finals. However, the ability to play as a team and avoid mistakes will keep this squad a contender.
Dream Kentucky-Duke Final?
There would be plenty of intrigue for the national championship game no matter who plays, but it seems clear the most popular matchup would be Kentucky against Duke.
This would feature two of the biggest programs in college basketball with almost every casual fan tuning in whether they love or hate the teams. There would also be the historic significance of whether Kentucky would be able to close out the first ever 40-0 season against the only team that can match up on a talent level.
NBA fans would also love to see plenty of future stars on both sides, including one notable battle in the middle described by Alan Hahn of MSG Network:
With all of these factors combined, it's not hard to imagine this being the most heavily watched college basketball game of all time.
Of course, it will come down to both Kentucky and Duke advancing in their semifinal matchups to make this dream a reality.
